Chapter 94 I do not have any regrets Part 5

Su Lin and Monkey hurried and returned back to Hangzhou city in the late evening.

Surprisingly, this entire endeavor had taken only a single day's time!

But even that somehow seemed too long...

Rabbit sat there, right next to Luther's bed, fidgeting with his fingers.

Panther, who was sitting on the other side, sighed and signaled him from time to time, to remain calm.

Luther was tired and was resting his body under heavy medication.

All the other superficial wounds had been thoroughly dressed and he was comfortably sedated to help in the recovery.

Around 8 pm, Monkey and Su Lin urgently barged into Luther's room.

"Shhh... Don't you have the common sense to open the door slowly." Rabbit chided Su Lin, though it was clearly Monkey, who had pushed open the door.

Not so surprisingly, Su Lin again ignored him.

In fact, the words he uttered didn't even register in her consciousness.

As soon as her eyes fell on that peacefully sleeping figure, her mind raced and her heart ached. It felt as if someone twisted her heart and tore her body apart.

The abundance of untold pain, in that handsome sculpted face, adamantly refusing to be scared by the innumerable cuts and injuries, hit her like a lightning tribulation.

Her entire soul ached to see the man, so helplessly lying... This was all because of her uselessness.

What was the point in being a God of alchemy, when she couldn't even protect someone so precious to her?

He didn't hesitate to toss her out of harm's way and take her place. But she...

She didn't even think about the harm that would befall those close to hers...

She slowly and cautiously approached the unconscious man, as if he was made of dust particles and he would disappear the instant she touched him.

She had already completely forgotten about the entire world and the people around her.

Only that pale face and the scarred body remained in her eyesight.

She gently sat next to him and patiently held his hand, with a touch so soft and tender.

Her eyes shined with a warmth that had never before appeared in the entirety of her two lives combined...

She carefully took a single herb and separated out the glowing peanut-sized bead-shaped leaves.

She then proceeded to softly open the vulnerable pair of bruised lips and placed one bead after another.

"Don't put some nonsense in his mouth", Rabbit yelled from the side.

But he might have as well not said anything...

Su Lin continued placing a few beads and then washing them down with water.

Luther jerked slightly, but subconsciously gulped the contents in his mouth.

As soon as the bead reached the bottom of his stomach, it immediately dissolved and dissipated miraculously into his tissues, like it was water being absorbed by starved cells.

Su Lin immediately stopped and hesitated for a second.

This... Doing this in the hospital might bring a lot of unwanted attention and disturbance...

If the man who was completely paralyzed the previous day, was walking around the next day, as if nothing had ever happened, it will bring a storm into all their lives, something that they are not even remotely ready for.

For everything, this was not a convenient place.

Now that she had confirmed this herb's presence and a step further, even succeeded in acquiring it and testing its efficacy, there was nothing stopping her from making amends for her terrible oversight and stupidity.

She gently smoothed Luther's ruffled hair and turned towards the dumbfounded trio, staring at her, like they have seen a ghost.

This woman...

Brother just wiggled his toes right?

Was she actually saying the truth till now?

They were too shocked to say anything else. Even their combined minds couldn't comprehend what was happening right in front of them.

They had all hardened their hearts and were ready to accept their brother's condition.

So what if he was paralyzed and had to remain in a wheelchair for his entire life? Their brother was still alive, wasn't he?

But now, this woman... They didn't even dare to hope for more...

Su Lin cleared her throat and murmured, "We should transfer him somewhere else, with more privacy and seclusion."

The trio, Panther, Monkey, and Rabbit, nodded their heads in agreement, completely submissive, like small children.

Monkey immediately made a phone call and left the room. Rabbit scratched his head and turned his head in embarrassment.

He opened his mouth to apologize, but realized Su Lin's attention was somewhere else.

Her eyes never left the sight of the wounded man, who exuded the aura of a King, even when he was peacefully resting.

"...." Rabbit sat back, swallowing his apology.
